That would work yes but i wouldnt suggest unless u have a Fast Data transfert.. File Saving WILL slow Down the Sim IF ur doing Big sims and u have a Bad tranfert Speed .. When u think about it , It all make sence again 2 ( Example , u have a Big simulation that takes let say 2 gig Fxb a Frame cache .. ya its a Big sim i hehe) ..
A) if ur Saving that Output Cache File on a Raptor drive 10 000 RPM , u will see the Simulation taking X time a frame ..
B) if ur Saving that Output Cache on a Network thats really slow , u will see the simulation taking X + More time a frame , and ull probably hear the Whole office screaming about how slow the Network is Suddently ..
in This case , 2 Gig to save , on faster drive takes less time than on slower drive ( aka Usb goes on that in my mind as well) . .
cheers
